Andy, many thanks for sharing the photo(s). Without the crews & history they're just big lumps of metal. Hope you don't mind the escape - the original Elgin spec. rather than the NFS reality. Many happy hours making replacement escape mountings to pattern (thank you Dr Barry) and Dennis factory photos.

Hey Peter that's the way it was meant to be! I'm over the moon that the old girl is still around! I'd be even more over the moon if your Dennis and the commer it worked along side could meet up again!

Hi Andy, hopefully won't be too long before I can take a drive up to Elgin in the Dennis. Maybe for her 70th birthday in 2013....Where's the Commer now?

Peter, that's great! I was speaking the previous owner, the Commer is now owned by someone who will use it as a Coffee Stand outside the new transport museum in Glasgow. Seemingly all the Coffee stuff fits into the lockers so it's not been molested in any way....
